Friends and associates!

Here's wishing that everyone is having a safe and happy Independence Day!

The San Francisco Real Estate Market for June showed signs of slowing in the numbers of properties sold, but not in the selling prices. As average selling prices continue to be over 100% of the listing prices, it indicates that values are still holding strong. There have been more price reductions recently, but we suspect that it is more from overly enthusiastic sellers, conditioned by past market conditions, who insist that their agents list their property higher than what is reasonable for the market.

We are very excited to announce several additions to our "arsenal of information". First is our new Blog where we answer questions about buying property in San Francisco. We hope you will take a look and participate in the discussions. Second is our link to a website called Zillow that gives quick and easy estimates of your home's value along with a satellite view of the lot.

As always, Avram Goldman, President and Chief Operating Officer of Coldwell Banker, San Francisco Bay Area does a weekly market update on our website. His experience and insight give some great perspective to our ever-changing market.
